MAIDENHEAD MP Theresa May has told workers at GSK that she is ‘grateful’ for their support- but she is still refusing to take part in live TV debates.

The PM visited her constituency this afternoon, first stopping by at a local school, before heading to the GSK factory.

She answered questions on topics including Brexit and housing. 

One constituent, an EU national who has been in Britain eight years, asked the PM for reassurance on her future in this country. 

Mrs May said she hopes to come to an 'early agreement' with the EU about citizens. 

"I see alot of goodwill on this issue," she said. "And [we] do want to give that reassurance. Hopefully we will be able to do that at an early stage."

Mrs May did not answer any questions from local press but in her speech prior to the Q & A she said: "I am only Prime Minister because I am an MP and that’s because the people of Maidenhead have put their trust in me. And I remember that and it's something I am very grateful for."

Outside the GSK factory, The Mirror, had someone dressed in a chicken costume with a placard that asked the PM if she is 'too chicken' to take part in live TV debates.

When asked if she was going to debate live, said she'd been ‘going head to head with Jeremy Corbyn’ every week in the House of Commons 'since I became Prime Minister.'

She said that instead she would be 'getting out and about' and talking to voters.

Mrs May said people could choose between a 'strong and stable' government, or a 'coalition of chaos' led by Mr Corbyn.
